On Kanye West's performance as an Instagram Husband: "We tried to [have a photoshoot in Tokyo], and it was such a mess. He just was not the best photographer. I was like, 'You ruined what my social media was going to look like.' So we scrapped that shoot, but we got the good experience."

On the difficulty of choosing what to post on social media: "It’s such a struggle. It really is. If people think you just post and it’s so easy, it’s not. I like my Instagram to look a certain way."

On dealing with online haters: "Absolutely it affects me… there could be one or two negative comments that really do affect you, and get to you. You know I’m human just like everyone else. Like things do hurt my feelings, but I think that I do have a really thick skin."

On why she and Kanye are starting a kids' clothing line: "[It's] something that Kanye and I have worked on for, really, years just having our own kids' clothes made. Almost everything we've had made. That's been such a fun journey to have our kids really inspire us, and to see our creations, from the cutest bathing suits, to dresses, to fancy clothes. And now we've been trying to make shoes, and getting our kids' input. It's just been so fun."

On what she learned from taking time out of the spotlight after her robbery: "I think it was so beneficial to take time off. I think people don't realize, in life, no matter what you do, no matter who you are, you have to take time off for yourself and for your family, other than work, especially if you're a workaholic like I am. I think it was really beneficial and a great growth process for me."

On why she tagged #NotBadForAGirlWithNoTalent when she shared her Forbes cover last year: "That was such a proud moment. That was powerful, to me. It was a marker to prove to me how hard I really have worked. Not to say that everyone needs a cover to make them feel like they really achieved something, but I think for all the scrutiny that's out there, for people that think that 'What am I doing?' or 'How did I get here?' That was a prideful [sic] moment for me. I think that's why I kind of put that cheeky hashtag when I posted it."

On trying to be a role model: "I definitely obviously have made my fair share of mistakes like everyone else, but I hope to never repeat those mistakes and just learn from what I’ve done. If people or young girls or kids can look up to just someone that works really hard and focuses on really what I want and makes that happen, then I hope that inspires them."
